i have my two dvc 12" 2 ohm subs fitted all in by a shop but i needed boot space so i decided to un plug it all but when i tryed fitting it, both subs begin to pop even on the lowest volume, i think its how i connected the wires which go from the 2 chan amp to the poss and neg ports on the back of the sub box, bacically i connected the 2 poss termials from the back of the box to the 2 poss terminals on the amp and same with the neg, is this wrong? im a total dumbie on this kinda thing can anyone help me?

if its a 2 channel amp you need to make sure you dont cross up the positive speaker wires and the negative ones. keep the positive and negative from one side on a single channel and the other pair of wires on the other channel.

What's the amp? Is it 2-ohm stable? How did you set the gain?
